Paper Monster

Paper Monster

I believe in the ghosts from this strange place and

In the stupidities that make you laugh

I believe in everything you write about

The closer I enter your world

I feel fragile

Running after your beasts

Pick up your pen and fight

Thank you appreciate your review and compliment.

I suppose you can interpret this in many different ways. Very interesting. Not sure what it means, but it's very nice.

[SquinklaPsyOps]

Thank you appreciate your review and will try to find different interpretations.

Perfect. I do that too. You do that to me as do other good writers. I am drawn into their world as if slowly entering their house through the kitchen door. Their mind on paper interests me. I want to know more about them. Sometimes I feel I am standing where I should not. It can be so intimate. Your poem says all of that with very few well chosen golden words.

Thank you for your valuable descriptive review and compliment, and thank you for providing imagery in your interpretation, you have sparked interest in reading your work.

Intriguing piece, don't believe everything you read, nor everything you think...

[SquinklaPsyOps]

Thank you for your interpretation and you are right it took me a long time to find that out.

This is about imagination for me, which allows temporary belief in unfounded ideas

[SquinklaPsyOps]

Your interpretation is interesting such as magic does not exist and is an illusion in the mind of persons.

[BL]

What does your poem mean then?

[Aethereal]

Every blank scrap of paper desires a soul; be she angel or demon. After receiving the breath of life from an inspired writer, this living blob of cellulose takes on a life of her own as she claws her way throughout our world seeking new victims to crinkle around.

[SquinklaPsyOps]

It makes sense and it seems there is no supervision when demons on the loose commit crimes such as when they stalk the confession booth inside church to gather intel about persons and then use it to bring back the past that was forgiven as the demons feed from prayers when they intentionally scare persons.

[For Who I Am]

Very nice poem. Where does your inspiration come from?

[SquinklaPsyOps]

Thank you for your review, now that you ask, persons are born and they die and that is the end of it, most persons want to come back to earth when they die and there is a lack of Arch Angels to push them to hell so that they dont remain as lost spirits on earth but who is listening so any ways all muses are masquerated evil that need praise from human spirits to remain on earth where they dont belong. I have no inspiration or anyone to inspire me and dont want devils masquerated as angels to try to approach me eiither because that is a lack of respect and then that will give me more to write about and hope the Arch Angels do their duty because I have a life to live

Hello. Your piece is thought provoking. It could be about any you, or any of us, who contribute our writings here . It made me think you were talking to me as an individual, which is what all of us hope to achieve - and not everyone can do that - and you are so clever to achieve that in so few words. Not a word is wasted. I know every line you wrote rung a chime in me. You know why some of us write, and you recognise that some of it is dark. And you finished with a challenge to all of us. At least those of us who write to exorcise our fears and ghosts. Very nicely expressed, I'll have to read more of your work :)

[SquinklaPsyOps]

Thank you, appreciate your descriptive review and advice in a world where persons are lured to write about darkness, which makes me wonder what causes it, hopefully this will enlighten them.
